NEA ARTS EDUCATION CAUCUS: NEA FUNDING: Watch the Debate

The NEA Fine Arts Caucus is established:

to actively work toward the implementation of policy through participation and influence on the NEA committees and governance bodies;
to provide a mechanism to support candidates for NEA office who will most benefit the cause of furthering Fine Arts Education within the nation;
to provide a mechanism by which NEA fine arts educators and advocates may introduce recommendations, secure support, and initiate action on concerns of fine arts members at the national, state and local level;
to introduce, enact and monitor "pro-arts" new business items, legislative intitiatives and resolutions at the annual NEA RA;
to increase awareness among all educators of the need of fine arts specialists in the regular school program;
